CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Small cockroach breeding farm (cockroach breeding factory)

1. What are the latest policy regulations on cockroach breeding?

The country does not subsidize the breeding of cockroaches, but it does subsidize the breeding of poultry such as beef cattle, pigs, aquatic products, dairy cows, and sheep.

Cockroach farming is a lucrative business in China. Unlike traditional animal farming, it is cheap to build a small cockroach farm. In addition, cockroaches reproduce quickly, rarely get sick, and do not have any special dietary requirements, as long as there is food waste.

2. What are the costs and profits of cockroach breeding?

American cockroaches are large in size, have medicinal and edible value, and are increasingly expensive, making for considerable profits. The gross income per square meter is around 1,000. The breeding environment requires insulation, moisture retention, and ventilation. The initial investment may be relatively high. It is recommended that you buy some relevant books or check online. It is best to understand the local market environment and see if there are any distributors purchasing them. If there are special purchasers, and there are relatively few people breeding them in your area, if you can succeed, it will be a way to get rich. I wish you success in your business!

3. Is cockroach farming a scam?

It's not a scam, it's a real project. As long as you have a market, breeding is definitely profitable because cockroaches reproduce very quickly and the investment is not large. People usually regard cockroaches as pests that spread diseases. If people find a cockroach farm nearby, they are likely to complain. This is why many cockroach farms in China are still operating in a secretive manner. People are unlikely to find facilities with the words "cockroach farm" or "cockroach factory".

Yet despite these risks and concerns, cockroach farming is still seen as a profitable business by many Chinese entrepreneurs.

4. What do you think of the cockroach breeding project?

It can have medicinal value. It can also clean up kitchen waste, so the benefits are considerable.

1. What are the cockroach breeding techniques?

1. Clay pot breeding method: Choose a clay pot of appropriate size depending on the number of cockroaches to be raised, and place old newspaper rolls or kraft paper rolls in the pot for the cockroaches to live in. Cover the mouth of the pot with a wooden board, preferably a wire mesh. Put drinking water and feed in a fixed position so that the cockroaches can form a conditioned reflex and regularly go to the fixed position to eat. It is best to use a porcelain basin to put the feed in the pot, so that the leftover food will not fall to the bottom of the pot, reducing the difficulty of cleaning.

2. Greenhouse breeding method: Use black plastic cloth to build a greenhouse, and leave screens at both ends for ventilation. In winter, you can use double-layer plastic film for insulation or heating with fire or electric heating. Leave a walkway in the center of the greenhouse. Put a feed trough and a water trough. To prevent cockroaches from falling into the water and drowning, you can put a sponge in the trough. Put some soft materials with gaps or foam boards for packaging eggs on both sides of the greenhouse, or you can put wooden breeding boxes. This method is suitable for large-scale breeding, with low investment and low cost, but it is not easy to catch adults.

3. Wooden box breeding method

① Breeding conditions: The specifications of the breeding box are 70 cm long, 50 cm wide, and 60 cm high, and the cover panel of the box is movable for operation. A small window of 20 cm long and 15 cm wide is built at the front and back, and sealed with iron mesh nails for easy observation and air circulation. There is no bottom plate under the breeding box, which is convenient for cleaning and hygiene. The breeding box is placed in a house with a relatively flat ground. Inside the box, a square wooden strip is nailed on the front and back sides 10 cm away from the box mouth to place a wooden frame. The wooden frame is "U" shaped, and its specifications are made according to the width of the breeding box. The two sides of the frame can be placed on the two wooden strips at the front and back of the box. The wooden frame is covered with paper, and then the wooden frames are stacked one by one in the breeding box to become a residence for cockroaches.

② Feeding and management: Select healthy cockroaches as breeding insects, place them in a breeding box, put in a small amount of feed, and initially feed them with green, juicy, nutritious fruit peels, bread, steamed buns, and rice. Provide sufficient clean drinking water, and feed once every 3 days. It is better to put the feed on the top of the wooden frame in the box, or on the floor at the bottom of the box, while drinking water can only be placed on the floor at the bottom of the box. Cleaning and sanitation work should be done once every 3 days. First, gently move the feed box, clean it, and move it back to its original position, then add feed and change water. Cockroaches lay eggs mostly on the wooden frame paper, and the larvae will hatch after more than a month of incubation.

5. Is there anyone breeding cockroaches in China? What are the prospects?

The application range of cockroaches is particularly wide. Cockroach extracts are used in pharmaceutical products and research and development; cockroaches are used in the cosmetics industry because of their unique substances; it is reported that in recent years, Malaysia and my country have vigorously developed the breeding of precious aquatic products and rare animals, requiring a large number of cockroaches as bait, so cockroaches are in short supply in the market. At present, cockroaches have become a new business opportunity for many people to get rich.

Although the breeding of cockroaches is relatively simple, if you can fully master the breeding methods, it will definitely reduce your costs and thus increase your profits. Let's take a look at what we should pay attention to when breeding cockroaches.

Cockroach breeding tips:

1. Choose the type of cockroach to raise. There are many species of cockroaches, including American cockroaches, Australian cockroaches and German cockroaches. Among them, American cockroaches are a good choice. This type of cockroach is large in size, has a strong reproductive capacity, is not picky about food, and is a good species for artificial breeding.

2. Pay attention to the breeding form. Cockroach breeding can be roughly divided into two breeding forms, one is mixed breeding with earthworms, and the other is cockroach breeding and mixed breeding with earthworms. The two forms are different. Through practice, it is found that there is not much conflict between cockroaches and earthworms, and they can even produce complementary advantages. When raising earthworms, they will have feed that cannot be eaten on the same day, and these feeds are excellent food for cockroaches, which is beneficial to the production of cockroaches.

3. Environmental factors. Entrepreneurs who raise cockroaches should pay great attention to the airtightness of the house. To prevent cockroaches from escaping from the gaps, they should choose a flat-roofed house, plaster it with cement, and fill the cracks.

6. Cockroach breeding technology and site construction?

1. Breeding site

Cockroaches are different from other animals. It is best to breed them in a relatively closed place to prevent them from escaping. Prepare a clay pot of suitable size, put some old newspapers or kraft paper rolls at the bottom, and hang drinking water and feed on the wall of the pot with iron hooks, and then cover the mouth of the pot with iron gauze and wooden boards.

2. Environmental factors

The humidity in the place where cockroaches live cannot be too low, generally it should be kept at around 70%, and they should be sprayed with water regularly to keep them moist. The temperature should not be too high, and it should be kept at around 28-33 degrees Celsius all year round. Keep away from noisy places, keep quiet, and the light should not be too strong. It is best to breed them in a dark room so that the cockroaches can grow normally.

3. Feed ratio

Cockroaches are omnivorous insects with strong digestive abilities and large appetites, so it is necessary to use nutrient-rich feed to supplement their nutrients. Mix corn meal, salt, stone powder, fish meal, lard, brown sugar, rapeseed cake, etc. and put them in the feeding trough, and make sure there is water in the trough at all times for the cockroaches to drink.

4. Prevent pesticides and pests

Cockroaches are very tenacious and reproduce quickly, but their resistance to agricultural pesticides such as Pesticide and DDT during the nymph stage is very low. They are prone to loss of appetite and even large-scale death. Therefore, pesticides must never be sprayed or applied near places where cockroaches are raised.

7. How much does it cost to invest in cockroach breeding?

Equipment cost: 90,000 yuan, first batch purchase cost: 45,000 yuan, advertising cost: 10,000 yuan, working capital: 100,000 yuan, total investment cost: more than 279,000 yuan. At present, 100 million cockroaches can process 5 tons of garbage every day. The breeding scale depends on the local daily garbage production, especially the number of restaurants. The industry now breeds "American cockroaches", an insect that moves actively. This insect is very orderly and we rarely see it. After having food, it will eliminate them neatly and quickly."

8. Are there people raising cockroaches in Heze City, Shandong Province?
